A haircut and the OK hand symbol are raciest? I respect what the ADL is attempting to accomplish and bringing to light to actual hate symbols. A lot of them are disgusting, violent and vial memes, threatening harm or death on people because of the way they look or their beliefs. All of that should be unanimously denounced entirely! Can we find common ground that a musician giving the OK symbol during a sound check and every person wearing a Bowlcut is not automatically perceived as raciest?

Direct Quotes

The “OK” hand symbol – Begun as a hoax by members of the website 4chan, the OK symbol became a popular trolling tactic. By 2019, the symbol was being used in some circles as a sincere expression of white supremacy. Australian white supremacist Brenton Tarrant  ashed the symbol during his March 2019 courtroom appearance soon after his arrest for allegedly murdering 50 people in mosques in Christchurch.

The “Bowlcut” is an image of a bowl-shaped haircut resembling the one worn by white supremacist mass killer Dylann Roof. Those who use the bowlcut image or other “bowl” references admire Roof and call for others to emulate his 2015 mass shooting attack at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

Actually after this comment she was told people are going to think you’re pandering to the black community where she said “is it working”. Direct Quotes: In a radio interview Monday morning, Hillary Clinton was asked to name something she carries with her everywhere she goes. “Hot sauce,” she answered. “Yeah.” The Clinton campaign has confirmed to TIME the type and brand of hot sauce now toted by the Democratic front runner for the presidential nomination: Ninja Squirrel, a Sriracha from the in-house brand of Texas-based Whole Foods Market. “And we continue to carry chili flakes and jalapeños around,” says Clinton campaign spokesperson Nick Merrill. Clinton was speaking to one of New York’s largest hip-hop and R&B stat...

Joe Biden should take the same test.

https://www.nytimes.com/article/trump-cognitive-test.html Joe Biden should take the same test. The media, including the Washington Post, continued to down play the difficulty of the test and even said the test is too “blunt” of an instrument and for most people it’s too “easy” and “the test is not that difficult”. If that is true, then the genius that is president now should have no problem! Direct Quote: But it is by no means definitive, or even diagnostic, experts pointed out. And as the president tries to draw a contrast between his mental faculties and those of Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., a fellow septuagenarian he expects to face off against in November’s election, some experts criticize his politicization of such cognitive screening tests. “You would think he would understand clearly what the test result was and why the test was done,” Dr. Karlawish said, “and not turn it into a competition about mental health.” This screening test was designed about 20 years ago as a pos...
